[ Is Now- Engaged in Mission Work on Brandrith, of Hope Farm Killed By H's'Tcam. William Leo Brandrith, son of Mr. W. J. Brandrith, of Hope Farm, met v/ith a tragic death on Friday afternoon of last week, being trampled hy hlB team sustaining injuries to which he succumibed six hours afterwards. The young man was working on Mr. 6. Morley's place with a. team and waggon and the reins had been tied to the hames and he had stepped on to the waggon tongue to secure them, when one of the animals, which was a spirited young horse, becoming frightened started plunging. The unfortunate young man was thrown to the ground. The horses were by this time thoroughly aroused and one of them, a heavy horse, weighing 1600 pounds, crushed in his side crashing into the lung. Other injuries were also suffered but '.his was the direct cause of death. Immediate assistance was* at hand and Dr. King was hastily sumoned. Everything that was possible was done under the circumstances, but the ease was a hopeless one from .'.he stai-t and the patient, who was suffering Intensely, was given an opiate. Death resulted from a hemorrhage. The deceased was one month lacking 2C years of age. He was well kntwji and popular throughout the diiirict and the parents ami family have the deepest sympathy of the entire community in their great be- A very sad feature in connection A vi*y sail feature in connection with tho tragedy was the fact '.hat tiie father of the boy had 'been East o.'i a business trip and was expected to return on Saturday evening. He did not reach Vancouver until Monday and poceeded to Xew Westminster to transact some business before jui'ireyi-g home. It was not until he had gm:> to New Westminster that he learned of the terrible affair when with all haste he came to the Delta, 'ajllyin-g in time fpr the funeral. The Interment took place In the Boundary Bay cemetery and was attended by representatives from all over the Delta, the funeral cortege briny a very large one. The Rev. C, H. Bartlett conducted the services. The following gentlemen ac'ed as pallbearers: Messrs. Herbert Kemp. Van- comer; George Love, Robert Love, Burmby; Robert Morley, William Ea-le nnd Peter Gunn, of the Delta. There were many beautiful floral tributes. Among others being the folic wing: Mr. ami Mrs. Je=sle Love and family, Burnaby, wrea'h: Mr. and Mrs. G. Davir, Burnaby, spray; Mr. and Mrs. H. Jenes, "Burnaiby spray; Mrs. Janet C.

Mr. iMciAulay, formerly Presbyterian minister here, was in the city Wednesday and Thursday, renewing old friendships. Mr. McAulay is now on the Presbyterian mission boat Naiade, his field of activities lying among those engaged in the logging industry from Vancouver to 200 j miles northward. His work consists ���mainly In visiting the loggers at the I different camps on the Coast, holding 'services and otherwise looking after ' their spiritual and morai welfare. Altogether he has some two thous- | and men ln his area. Everywhere he 1 states the logger receives him in tile most hearty manner and he has yet j to meet with an unkind word. The logger is rough on the exterior but j when you come to know him he is a splendid fellow, generous, hospitable and with good impulses. Among the | praiseworthy works done by the Naiade is that of distributing literature, j secular as well as religious, among the men. The lot of the logger is one ' particularly worthy of sympathy, says Mr. McAulay. ln his extensive visits '.o them he llnds little tending i'or his well being, no home life and few, if any, of those comforts enjoyed by tha average man. Practically the only accommodation the men have is their own narrow bunks, and hard ones at that. In a few instances, however, modern springs are replacing the straw so in some degree their com tort is being improved physically. Away from any entertainment of any kind, except what they can get from tobacco and cards, the logger is perhaps more susceptible than anyone else *.o the temptations of city life, when he reaches civilization. While they make/good "stakes" in too many instances they depart with them In two or. three weeks, bled by the agencies that lie in waait for them when they strike "town." The Naiade is really a gospel mission boat, another boat being used in con- nootlon with the. mission jtvork to give llrst aid to '.he injured and take sick and injured men at once to where they can obtain competent attention. While the Naiade is a gospel mission boat it does not do for Mr. McAulay to approach the loggers on Iirst Introduction in his ministerial capacity, considerable tact being required, to get into touch and in the confidence with them. I Coming up on the S. S. Sonoma I Wednesday Mr. McAulay recalled the fact to Mr. Brewster that he was the first "paid" passenger to ever travel on the boat. There was another passenger on board nt the time, and of paper man from Vancouver, and of course he was "broke" and had to beg a passage. NF.W QUARTERS, W.

At the services the choir will occupy the new vestry for the first time, the alterations Which have been under way for the past two weeks having been completed. A new organ loft, among other work, has be.en constructed, the organ now occupying a place back of the choir. Messrs. A. T. Fawcett and A. Smith, church wardens, have had Issued during the week notices to the effect that owing to the great discomfort experienced in the church last winter, caused by the poor heating system, the church committee are of the opinion that they should replace the worn-out stove with a furnace, which can be put under the church at a cost of two hundred dollars. They are therefor appealing to the parishioners as an annual Harvest Thank- offering for this purpose feeling sure that the congregation will enable them to make this much-needed improvement.

The general enthusiasm displayed by the board or managers, and directors nnd ���he exhibitors themselves, weni largely toward making the fair the sue ess it proved. The feature of the fair wis the splendid display ut hors. s Many per- | ions believed that the bad weather Nroiild have such effeoi as to keep tway a large numbi r of exhibits. Certainly some .lid ii.ii appear, bm the rn.��� "f horses surpassed all expectations. .Mr. Gray, the expert horse Judge from Ontario, who has officiated at Victoria, Eburne, Duncan and 3*jedner this season, said many of the ���Torses al Surrey yesterday were the best lie had seen in tbe country. Tiie cattle display was li,;iit. There was a nice display of poultry "that was greatly admired. Coming inside the neatly arranged hall, the most striking feature was the admirable boxes an I raws of potatoes of many varieties, the big ttncl healthy looking turnips and carrots, not t" mention beets, mangolds, jaisuips and cabbage. In comparison lo its size this exhibit is perhaps better than any seen this season. On Hie left hand entrance a tempting array of' tine bread and butter *��as seen. The garden produce made -np in Quality what it, lacked in quantity. Messrs. Collishaw, Walker, Bui-ehett and Murray had the bulk of the exhibits in this line.
